Finished reading Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

Rated There is no antimemetics division 5/10

This novel could have been a wiki which is I guess is how it started out. The central idea is great: how do you combat malign forces that can make you forget they exist? Going in I sort of thought this was about people fighting other people with anti-memetic technology, but it ended up being more focused on X-Files-ish eldritch horrors and cryptozoological mysteries. I was game, but the characters, such as they were, never fully inflated. Each little case sketch was fun on its own and the whole might have been more entertaining as a loose collection without any pretense toward a plot.

Here's a new Patreon post that's free for everyone to read – announcing the publication of my new book, Train Europe. In it, I talk about how I wrote the book and what's inside it.

The post also includes the video of the complete Q&A session which was held at the book launch at Readings last week, in which editor Bradley Smith asked me questions about Train Europe.

Enjoy!
